Park Lane convertible by Sunstar. Why not, right? Overall, it's a very nice model with terrific detail & working features. This particular release did have fender skirts, but I removed them. I owned a '66 Park Lane convertible many years ago; it was a great car with lots of power (410 V8 ). IMO, the '59 Park Lane was a better looking car than when introduced just one year prior, in 1958. 😎 😎 😎

Fine images of this 1959 Mercury from SunStar Platinum ! I have this same convertible and also a red/white hardtop. It is a great choice for them to do and the replicas are certainly among my favorites.

That Mercury IS Sunstar at its absolute BEST. And its $ was reasonable and packaging was excellent.

"Hi Chris any further updates on your Pontiac project?"
The short answer is "No."
I have three 1/18 projects going: 1958 Pontiac Bonneville, 1969 Dodge Charger, and a 1943 WW II German 8.8 Flak gun with bogies. Currently I'm working on the flak gun.
Here's where I'm at on ALL 3 projects though:
